Nailed it.

"I was once told by someone wiser than me that a successful marriage requires a constant effort to find connections—the relationship must be continually maintained and strengthened. Because otherwise, when the bad times inevitably arrive, it will be too late. I feel this may apply to Canada. These are sunny days. But the weather will change. And when our storm arrives, we may discover that Canada was never really a country after all."

Wow, what astounding "wisdom" spoken by Climate Barbie's househusband, Scott Gilmore.

It's his wife's mindset (assuming she has one) and policies that are causing the "weather...change".

After all, we know that she claims to be the minister responsible for the weather.

What a stupid piece of drivel.

California will be voting this year to split into 3 parts. Where,s our vote?

Smartest thing printed in Macleans in a long while. Absolutely true. I think AB and SK have enough in common that we should merge and separate from Canada. Still enough economic activity here that we would have a chance at paying the bills too.

Excapt for the fact we’d be land-locked East and West. Left-Wing BC would have to come along, who knows, maybe they would.

My vote would be Thunder Bay and west.

My vote would be Thunder Bay and west.

I would have said that too a number of years ago, but with the major Indian drug and welfare issues they are having there, I would make the cutoff just west of T-Bay. Dryden and Atikokan are good, clean conservative towns.

True enough, I have a cousin in Thunder Bay, they like it, but it is basically a seaport, and I think it would be good to have. I think a western gov't would allow the indigenous people to become part of the country, not a separate nation, and that would be good for them.

Winnipeg doesn't belong in the new country because almost nobody in that town receives a pay check solely from private sector sources. Mind you as a farmer, there are some subsidies at my place, as there are at yours so I guess not all my income is private sector either. That is the glue that keeps current Canuckistan together, government pogey.
